I'm a male god in Liyue

"pot?"

"This contains a liquid that tastes even better than wine."

"What liquid?"

"A mixed fruit juice, a new drink from Liyue, with a wonderful taste that is simply unforgettable."

Sarott opened the wine jug in his hand, and an indescribable fruity aroma wafted out.

“I specially chilled it and brought it from Liyue to Mondstadt so that you could also taste this delicacy.”

Chapter 144 The Cat's Attack

After finishing lunch, feeling satisfied, Xiangling became even more determined to travel.

She wants to make dishes that can glow in the future!

Only dishes that glow are good dishes!

A chef who can't make glowing dishes isn't a good chef!

Xia Zhi held a small, teapot-like object in his hand and gently stroked it.

This is the Chenge Pot that Grandma Ping gave to Xiangling—a portable tent made with the power of "exterior scenery" and various precious materials.

Xiangling said that the space inside is still very desolate, and she has to keep stuffing things in so that the environment can become comfortable and pleasant.

Xia Zhi played with the Chenge Pot for a moment, then returned it to Xiangling. He then got up, walked to the table, and took out a bottle from the cabinet.

"Miss Xiangling, this is for you."

"This is?"

"Just one drop of the essence for rainbow juice is enough to make a glass of rainbow juice."

"This is too much!"

"Not much. After all, Miss Xiangling will be traveling for a long time. Whenever she gets tired or thirsty, she can have a drink from home, which will surely make her feel better."

Xiangling hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took the bottle, expressing her sincere gratitude.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Mr. Xia!"

"When traveling, one must be wary of strangers. Although your trip is to improve your cooking skills, you should not eat food from strangers. Please be very careful."

"Yeah! I remember it!"

Xia Zhi nodded. Xiang Ling already possessed martial arts skills, had the Eye of God, and had a spirit beast like Guoba by her side. In addition, her master was a legendary immortal, so he must have given her a lot of good things for self-defense...

Wait a minute, why does this feel like a light novel about a master descending from the mountain?

"correct."

Xia Zhi took out the little panda and the safety buckle he had carved earlier and gave them to Xiangling and Qiqi.

“A few days ago, we went for a walk in the street and we were lucky enough to find jade in the stones we picked at the Jade Carving Shop. So I just carved some small trinkets. They’re nothing valuable, and I don’t have any use for them. I’m giving them away to everyone to collect and play with.”

Although he deliberately carved the panda differently from Guoba, Xiangling still liked it very much, and Guoba also made a happy sound when he looked at the jade pendant.

Qiqi whispered a thank you and carefully placed the safety buckle into her small cloth bag.

There was only one red panda, but he had several safety amulets engraved, and he also gave two to Yanfei and Grandma Ping, so that everyone who saw them would receive one.

After chatting for a while, Xiangling noticed the mahjong set on the table not far away and looked somewhat curious.

"what is that?"

Mahjong!

"When I came over this morning, I saw everyone playing with that thing together? It looked like it was made of jade too?"

"Hmm, Miss Xiangling, would you like to try it out?"

"what?"

So, before Xiangling left, everyone pulled her along to experience this charming new card game.

To ensure Xiangling's gaming experience, Gan Yu, who had exceptionally good luck with cards, was the first to be eliminated, and could only stand behind Xiangling as a teacher.

The four mahjong players who were finally decided upon are: Zhu Zi, Shen He, Yan Fei, and Xiang Ling.

Xiangling was a beginner and wasn't very familiar with the rules. Plus, she was the talkative and cheerful type, so whenever she got a good hand, she couldn't help but show her joy, and whenever she got a bad hand, she would frown.

Zhu Zi is similar to Xiang Ling in that she has a rich range of expressions, but her card skills are slightly better than Xiang Ling's.

Shen He is a player without emotions.

As for Yan Fei, she's already started using tricks. Sometimes she'll deliberately make sure she has a winning hand, just to "steal the kong." Sure enough, smart people are good at everything.

Around 2 PM, Xia Zhi went to the kitchen to fry some French fries and make some ketchup. She specially added some white jade honey to the ketchup and served it to everyone as a snack.

The fries were golden and crispy, and the special ketchup was sweet and sour with a hint of exotic floral aroma, which received unanimous praise.

After tasting it, Grandma Ping discovered that this tomato sauce contained even more "vitality" than rainbow juice.

It's good stuff.

She looked up at Xia Zhi, then at Yao Yao who was happily eating fries.

She initially thought it was a bit inappropriate for Yao Yao to come to the store every afternoon for a part-time job, but now...

Part-time work is also a form of self-cultivation!

Children should be exposed to society as early as possible!

Thinking this, Grandma Ping couldn't resist eating another French fry dipped in red ketchup.

After finishing their fries, Xiangling went back to pack her luggage, Yanfei went back to work overtime, Grandma Ping took Yaoyao and got up to say goodbye, and Qiqi followed suit.

The shop suddenly became deserted again.

Gan Yu said casually, "Since we're free anyway, why don't we continue playing mahjong?"

Xia Zhi paused for a moment, then said, "How about we try a different way of playing?"

"Boss, is this the Japanese mahjong you mentioned last time?"

"Ah."

"Okay!"

"Let me explain the rules to you. They're basically the same, except that Japanese mahjong requires yaku..."

A few minutes later, the fight began.

"Self-draw, unparalleled in the nation!"

"Self-draw, four concealed triplets, single rider!"

"Self-draw, Big Three Dragons!"

……

Xia Zhi fell silent once again.

This……

It's no challenge for her at all!

--

Mondstadt, Cat's Tail Tavern.

As everyone returned from that dreamlike world of taste, they looked down at their empty cups and fell silent.

What on earth is this thing!

It tastes so good!

The portion size is too small!

That wine jug looks like a lot, but each person can only get a small sip, which is not enough to satisfy them at all!

"Saroth, what did you just say this was?"

"Rainbow Juice".

"how much is it?"

"100 Mora per cup."

"Such fine goods, and so cheap?! Sarott, why didn't you bring more back?!"

“I wanted to bring more back, but the beverage shop has a rule that each person can only buy two cups a day.”

"Add more money!"

“I’ve tried, but they wouldn’t sell it even if I offered more money, so there’s nothing I can do.”

"..."

Looking at the suddenly bored crowd in the tavern, Sarott felt much more at ease.
